Rally X and Bosconian share a cabinet style that is different than Galaga, that is different from Ms pac that is again different from Pac man :)  only thing similar is the shape.

You following the original thicknesses of wood?  looks like the nintendo cab is made of 3/4 material when the originals weren't.  Might want to look into that.

We decided to go with 3/4" MDF material on our cabinets.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

  • Worthless button pusher!
 :laugh2:

Seriously ... I like the idea of templates, but the seller's recent eBay auctions have revealed that he is lying about many of the things that he claims and is selling other people's plans.

And, sadly, while his website gives the impression of secure payments ... your credit card info is sent to him for processing, not directed to a secure processing site.

He stole from Kyle and stole from Jake ... do you really think he won't steal from you ?

Your all sadly mistaken, our credits are processed through First Data through the Linkpoint Gateway. And we do not steal plans from people, we take them from original cabinets. If you can't prove your statements, then don't post anything. Your comments have once again been reported to the MOD.

RE: Credit card processing -- your site does not validate cards and does not provide an immediate confirmation as a secure passthrough would. It just submits to your site and says "thanks for your order! We'll send you an email". If *I* am wrong and it is a secure direct processing, then please prove it.

RE: Selling Jake's plans:


saint's note - this image has been altered from the original by the photobucket.com account owner. Original is attached

That pic is from your auction and represent Jake's plans.

So, please tell me where I was wrong.

Credit cards are processed through a gateway, gateway information is not given to the buyer. The last 4 numbers of a credit card and address is the only thing we see and the amount after it. Once First Data processes your payment on our site you get an email with all the information in it sent directly from the Linkpoint system. I have been a webmaster for 20 years, and also had my merchant account for almost 20 years. My merchant account is impeccable and not every website works the same. Any more questions and you'll have to talk to my coder about that. If you honestly think I'm stealing credit card info, that is a drastic statement and can land you in court for Slander. Again you must prove what you say, if you can't then STFU already you troll. If I was proven to be stealing credit cards and using them, don't you thin I would be sitting in a 8x8 jail sell already you dumb FU**. Credit cards is a federal deal man!.

Again prove what you say before your pole smoker makes you look stupid.

If you three trolls have a problem with my site and myself, simply don't go to it, and simply don't buy from it, I do not want your business so go the FU** away.

That's Cheffo's argument....

I'm still waiting to hear how those plans are yours and not Kyle's and Jakobud's.

Classy...

We obviously have no interest in doing business with you. We're just trying to prevent others from doing it, especially when you're selling plans that are freely available and the authors are requesting they NOT be sold. (Unless you can prove that they ARE yours, at which point I'll delete all my comments to the contrary)

Well that's slander and I want your information. Please give me your name and address so I can send you something in the mail from my lawyer. If you can prove what you say, you have no problem appearing in court right? No we are not selling other's plans.

You can sue anyone for anything. Doesn't mean you'll win.

The burden of proof is on you at the moment.

It's not like we were the first people to cry foul at your so-called goods and services.

Man, I've wasted too much time on this guy. We honestly question him and he replies by calling us names, swearing, and making threats.

At this point, just based on demeanor alone, I don't see why anyone would do business with him.

Factor in that he's more than likely ripping off the contributions of members of this community and I see no reason to deal with him anymore.

It's best that he just go away. He's done here.

Sheesh ... again ... it's libel. Slander is spoken or gesticular.

I sent you another PM concerning the CC processing (just in case, being a webmaster since before the proposal for WWW was implemented, you may have been hoodwinked by your coder) and you already have enough information to have me served.

Hey, that makes us practically related! (I got that too and have already reported it)

You can't use the feedback form in this capacity. It's not what it's for.

Well here is Jake's plans that are freely available on his site. Looks pretty much IDENTICAL if you ask me.

I am not a lawyer. However, as I understand it the burden of proof in a claim of libel or slander lies with the person making the claim. I believe there is a difference between libel/slander/defamation (hereafter grouped simply as libel but encompassing all terms) and a statement of opinion. I also believe a statement of truth is not libel, even if the statement is of a negative nature towards a business. It is my belief that statements of opinion and statements of truth are Constitutionally protected free speech.

I believe one of the values in a web forum such as this is the free and frank discussions of the merits and other factors concerning merchants who sell products related to this hobby -- be those comments positive or negative.

Although some of the language and tone used have been harsher than I would prefer on this forum, I have not seen anything warranting a ban and will not be taking any such action at this time.

Take note of where the harsh comments have originated. It wasn't on this side. I think the regulars here have been quite restrained in tone, actually.

Now, can we take care of this negative feedback on my profile?  ;D

Thanks Saint!
